Hi list,

I just reported this issue not just because it bothers me, this was
because in my daily usage I've never seen that behavior sorry if this
issue is annoying for some developers, apologies. I think that i3wm is
really a great piece of software that I've used in my everyday. I
would like to contribute a patch but it could take me some time to
read all the source code and create a practical solution, however my
time is very limited to apply it and the only thing is report the
issue that could improve i3wm not substancially but it will in some or
other way.


PATIENT: Doctor, it hurts when I do this...
DOCTOR: Then don't do that.

This joke doesn't apply here, we are talking of a great piece of software[1],
off
course I didn't want to disturb to any of you, i3wm is great for my
usage and this answer is unacceptable here.

bindsym $mod+Shift+e exec "pidof i3-nagbar || i3-nagbar -t warning
-m'You pressed the exit shortcut. Do you really want to exit i3? This
will end your X session.' -b 'Yes, exit i3' 'i3-msg exit'"

that being said I would like to say thank you Tony your quick solution
just worked for me.

What’s the problem with this behavior?

It surely is technically possible to avoid it, but why bother?

Dear I3wm list ,

Recently I was using my laptop with i3wm, my version is 4.8
(2014-06-15, branch "4.8") I run debian testing, I couldn't say that I
haven't fallen in love with it,but checking the option to exit from
my current session if I press once, I get the normal message set
by the default configuration, but if I press many times
$mod+Shift+e I get something like in the attached picture.

Is there any way to add some snipe of code to solve it if I press many
times?.

Can anybody confirm this behavior maybe I'm wrong and it just
happend to me.

Best Regards,
Hector.
